Have 01 GS300, second generation. Just replace my original air filter with weapon intake and keep getting check engine, what can i do? How can I adjust the sensors? Is there a shop in Maryland or central Pennslyvania that fix the problem?

take it off, get rid of it, and have a shop reset the codes.

That will do nothing for you except add more noise and give you tiny amount of horsepower and rob you of low end torque.

Interesting about the unfavorable reviews on the Weapon R....Ill have to read up on that......I just put an Injen short ram brand new in box from craigslist for $100 and there is no CEL on and I got a noticable power increase.
I know the SRT is considered better because the mini-computer splices into the MAF wire harness and adjusts the air/fuel - giving a nice boost in power, but IMO I would rather get an A/F controller and short ram to have that adjustability for future mods and for close to the same price.
